“The constitution is the basic contract in society. I think that somewhere deep in the entire political system, which is reflected in education, culture, and the economy, there is a lack of rules and legality,” Kiril Petkov told Darik Radio.
“Our critics say ‘the big change you made,'” by Geshev to Sarafov. But whatever Sarafov’s moral compass is, every move from now on and every decision he makes must be made bearing in mind that one day he may be investigated by an independent judge. What we understood is that the coordination between GERB and DPS is so serious that they act almost as one structure – that is indeed a fact. The question here is not why we decide to invite DPS to be part of this majority. As we are in full coordination with “Democratic Bulgaria”, GERB say “we are in full coordination with DPS and this majority you cannot choose whether it is with one or the other, because we work as one – that is the reality”. explained Petkov.
And he noted that “here the question is why and how is it possible to achieve change with the people who were previously a symbol of what we fought against”.
Asked whether he trusts his coalition partners from GERB, Petkov replied: “If one of these parties says that he trusts the other, it will be a lie. The question here is whether we believe that, despite not having much trust in each other, we can achieve some goals , which are common – and here I say yes.
He commented that if a deal for “Lukoil” is reached, one danger that he does not want to happen is that an offshore company will appear somewhere, behind which buyers can hide, that the Bulgarian society does not know about.
“One of them may be hidden Russian buyers, through a Western investor. The other option is that they are some kind of consortium with some hidden Bulgarian buyers with unclear capitals, with some foreign hidden buyers with unclear capitals behind some offshore company,” Petkov pointed out.
“This is a private transaction, Lukoil has a complete choice of who to sell it to, but I want the owner to be known, to be of good reputation, and if possible, to even have a component in which the law on corruption abroad is put on the table so that such a key asset of Bulgaria cannot be used for corrupt or political maneuvers”, he added.
